I live in a forest with hundreds nf my tree friends. I live on a hill above the valley. This morning I witnessed a frightful scene.

Someone had made a careless mistake and started a forest fire: Luckily this fire did not spread very far until the forest rangers saw it and put It out. Listen carefully and I'll tell you something about forest fires. There are four types of forest, fires, They are: (1) ground fires which burn the humus layer of the forest floor, but do not burn appreciably above the surface; (2) surface fires, sometimes incorrectly called ground fires, which burn forest undergrowth and surface litter: (3) stand fires which burn the trunks of trees but not their foliaee; (4) crown fires which burn the crowning foliage in addition to trunks, undergrowth, and humus. As you will notice if you go on a camping trip in the mountains, there are signs saying things such as. 'Keep Our State nnd 'Prevent Forest Then you may think that these signs are Doily Menus in Public Schools Menus in Hope Public Schools for week of Nov.

You are right, but think also how much the state has spent on these signs and all other fire-equipment. The excessive destruction of U. S. forests by fire has cost some, lives and, thousands of dollars.

careless camp.er or traveler can start a bad fire. Sometimes these fires destroy animals and birds. It is much better to take the little time necessary to extinguish a camofire than to watch a blazing forest fire that you created. Here are some things you can do to keep my tree friends and me safe. Always be careful and don't throw a lighted match or cigarette from your car.

Be sure and remember to extinguish all campfires and be sure you make your camcfire away from brush, pine- needles, leaves, The best thing to do is to let common sense help you keep my friends and me safe from fire. NoV I want you to meet my Mr. House, who in the city and has his fire troubles too." "Hi, I am House, I would like to tell you about fire prevention in. the city. First, I will tell you some things that will help you prevent fires in homes and other buildings.

Chnck these items in the living room of your home. Be sure flammable curtains draperies cannot blow over ash trays, electric bulbs, gerosene stove, or lamps, gas or candle Watch for breaks, or wear in lamps and appliance cords. At Christmas time or other holidays, take extra precautions to safeguard vour home against fire. Here are some rules for a safe kitchen. Don't leave an electric iron with the current on.

Put in a safe place to cool. Always inspec stoves before leaving house, that gas burners turned off. There are many other rules to protect your home from firn. bit the best thing to do is to use rorn mon sense to decide whether your home, is safe. Now I will tell you some things that you could do if fire did break out in your home.

The first and roost important thing is to get everybody out of the house. Next call the fire' department. If vou live near enough to the fire department that it nan reach you speedily, do not try to put the fire out. But, if you live in an area- where vou have to wait for volunteers to come, you should keen the following supplies on hand: Fire extinguishers. Keep them handy; inspect them at least, once a year.

Follow the manufacturer's instructions for refilling. Know how to use them, (2) Water supply. you don't have a good deep well, a pond you should consider pro- iding one or the other. Be surp our water supply is accessible road. Without water you and our neighbor cannot fight a fire uccessfully.

Vou should obey iese rules to make absolutely ure you are protected from fire. Here are some facts" about the estruction of fire. Every day an of 1,100 homes me re struck by fire and 30 Am- Ticans die in fires each day. Neary 4,000 children die in fires every year. Thousands more are maimed and disfigured for life.

Approximately 10.000 Americans die in ires each year. Many of those deaths are caused by panic. On the other hand, each year many people apparently trapped by flames manage to survive because they understand what to do and what iot to do in case of fire. Be 'ul. Three out of four fires are caused by matches, careless smoking habits, faulty electric wiring and appliances, furnaces, heating imits, cooking stoves, gasoline, kerosene, and carelessness.

So, on the whole, fires are started mostly by "man's carelessness in some way. Fir0 can bo a useful arid helpful servant if we use It in the right way. gp let's be careful. Fire, our fiend, can be fire, our friend. up u'ith one.
